Description
Ever found yourself pressing the up arrow and enter 10 times a minute? Ever found yourself typing the same commands again and again?
No worries! Devloop to the rescue!
Usage
I've created this tool to allow a very simple workflow: Open a terminal/editor for editing code, another terminal for devloop.
Devloop allows you to recompile (and test, and whatever you want!) with just pressing Enter, and also save a lot of shortcuts to do other useful and repetitive commands.
Originally it was a shell script but the configuration file being a shell script bothered me, so I made it a rust program!
Installation
Devloop is on crates.io, so just cargo install devloop
after installing Rust.
Alternatively, put the binary from the Releases page somewhere in your $PATH (or %PATH%)
Configuration
Configuration is in a Devloop.toml
(by default) file in the current directory.
It is a toml file. Here's an example (from this repository's Devloop.toml
), along with explanations:
# This will be printed when you press q to quit
reminders = "Don't forget to format!"
# The `[[name]]` syntax in toml means that you're defining an array of tables.
# So this next section is equivalent to:
#
# tasks = [{ name = "Clippy", command = "cargo clippy -q" }]
#
# Each `[[section]]` will define one *element* in the array.
# Each task will be run in order every time you press Enter.
[[tasks]]
name = "Clippy"
command = "cargo clippy -q"
# Actions is a table where the key is the shortcut (in this case "f")
[actions.f]
name = "Format"
command = "cargo fmt"
[actions.t]
name = "Test"
command = "cargo test -q"
[actions.b]
name = "Benchmark"
command = "cargo bench -q"
pause = true # devloop will wait for another Enter before re-running [[tasks]]
[actions.R]
name = "Build release"
command = "cargo build --release"
[actions.r]
name = "Run"
command = "cargo run" # Another good candidate for pause=true
[actions.c]
name = "Clean"
command = "cargo clean"
